- Scaling and
Governance Conference 2010 (10
- 12 Nov. 2010) Hof van Wageningen, Wageningen, The
Netherlands
Policies have many impacts on environmental and human processes at
different spatial and temporal scales. Climate change, biodiversity,
energy consumption, water resource management, and food security are
a few of the many examples illustrating the complex multi-scale
interactions within and between environmental and human processes.
This observation fits well within a long history of disappointments
in policy and management related to our environment and indicates
that scale sensitive governance approaches are required.
Wageningen University invites participants of the conference to
discuss integrative concepts, methodologies, and case studies
related to scaling and governance issues in complex systems.
Anticipated outcomes of the conference include an international
research agenda and recommendations for scale-sensitive governance
approaches. Abstract submission deadline: May
31, 2010. For more information please click
